someone who doesn't care about them and someone who will not put their priorities first if he is elected president. >> well, meghan, respond to that. what context could he have possibly meant that you think he was taken out of context? >> first of all, the paul ryan quote u the stench quote, is an alleged quote. i think he was talking about the broader appeal with the tax system. i think governor romney -- i just think it was taken out of context and it's easy for the media to spin something, a short clip of a youtube video when gov knorr romney explained what he meant. the election is not over. what we need to concentrate on, there are 42 days left and i'm much more concerned about what's going to happen between president obama and governor romney in the next upcoming three debates than in a youtube video on the internet. >> but if he says 47% of america won't take responsibility and, in fact, says, in effect, they're freeloaders, doesn't that speak to the core of who is going to be the president if you vote for him? >> yes. >> what could be more important than that? >> no, i agree with

democrats and president obama have been trying to say about the republican party in the republican party's priorities. the idea is the protector of this sort of privileged pampered super elite that's been immune to the great recession that's enjoyed preferential tax treatment, things like this, romney, when you start talking about a guy who pays such a low effective tax rate, he looks like the kind of person that republicans are trying to protect and the proof is in the pudding because there was a poll that jumped out at me. they asked voters, do you think the candidate romney -- candidate obama understand and care about your problems? for obama the number is near 60%. for romney it's under 40. i think there's the image that he conveys is makes it very difficult for people to relate to him. >> now, joan, the president's ad on romney's taxes, ever since he released his tax returns, the obama campaign has been highlighting how unfair our tax policies are. watch this. >> it's crazy that mitt romney wants to get into office and lower taxes than the average american. >> i mean, these kinds of ads showing
